Maria Kane is a character in Just Cause, Just Cause 2, and Just Cause 4.
Personal history[]
As revealed in the JC2 PDA, she was born on June 15th, 1970.
It's revealed in the mission Love is in the Air that her father owns a vineyard at Napa Valley and that Rico has been there.
She and Rico Rodriguez had a short personal relationship some time before the mission to San Esperito, something Tom Sheldon still remains oblivious to, despite Rico's subtle references. That relationship might be the reason why she's less than nice to Rico during most missions in Just Cause, but they start getting along better during the later missions. Still, Maria often makes smart-ass remarks about Rico.
Career[]
Maria Kane has been with The Agency since 1994. She denied several offers to join the Agency until she was eventually convinced. More recently, she is the colleague of Rico Rodriguez and one of the main characters in the series.
Guatemala[]
She accompanied Rico and Dimah on their mission to Guatemala. This is when she was personally involved with Rico. Their forward operations base was the USS Codetalker.
San Esperito[]
She appears frequently throughout the Just Cause storyline missions.
Her tasks include:
- Maintain cover as a tourist couple with Tom Sheldon.
- Providing Rico with new equipment and vehicles. - "You know, they keep sending me new equipment for you. Don't know why, you just break it. Check it out anyway." - About the Protec Grappler G3.
- Transporting Rico around the islands on a speedboat and a helicopter (missions only).
- Giving Rico at least one mission briefing.
Panau[]
Her activities in Panau included giving mission briefs to Rico, answering to Washington D.C., instructing Rico how to overcome and navigate aspects of his job, working with Tom and ensuring their covers aren't blown, and other higher level "need to know basis" government work.
Solís[]
She is a minor character in the Danger Rising expansion pack. One of the loading screens added by the expansion mentions that she "went dark" years ago.
According to Tom, she gave him a tip to go check out the dock in the mission Old Friends and New Enemies.
Further details about her and her motivations are revealed in the mission Rogue Agent. To avoid major spoilers go there to read them.
Trivia[]
